From the reviews:

"This compendium is crammed with information, from the history of how the HPV virus was identified, to the present use of therapeutic HPV vaccines. ... it should be every PhD student's bible. ... policymakers may learn a lesson or two about the introduction of vaccination programmes - from the ethics associated with implementing them to the use of herd immunity in tackling lower-income populations. ... this book appears to be a must for anyone working in the HPV field." (C. Loughton, The Biologist, Vol. 60 (5), June-July, 2013)
